Birthday Bash- Day 99

Well, today was birthday party day!!! After all of our hard work, this happy little face makes it all worthwhile! More birthday pictures to come on FB and the family blog!

Birthday Bash- Day 98

Oh heavens to betsy! First, I have horrible photo uploading problems and I'm days behind and NOW I accidentally deleted today's photo. So imagine a really cute (yet totally homemade) diner sign in hot pink saying "Doyal Diner." Then there's an arrow pointing covered in Christmas lights. I'm going to hang it by our front door to welcome our guests. I'm donating all of my decorations to Bailey's school for their 50s Teacher Appreciation Week theme so maybe I'll get by there in a few days to take a picture of it.

Birthday Bash- Day 97

Maybe God is trying to tell me that I should stop messing with this computer and get some housework done, but I'm on Day #2 of not being able to upload pics to my computer. Imagine a cute pink poodle skirt I made for B's party. I'll keep trying.

Birthday Bash- Day 96

Today was Bailey's 3rd birthday and she had a full day from start to finish. More pics on the family blog tomorrow- but here's B on her new favorite toy, her Dora four-wheeler.


Well, having problems uploading pics to computer- I'll try again tomorrow.

Birthday Bash- Day 95

Some more large painted cutouts- I could probably drink a 5 foot tall Coke right now too if I wasn't pregnant!!!

Birthday Bash- Day 94

Been working on painting some large cardboard cutouts for the party. Here's a float I finished today. Maybe tomorrow I'll finish the Coke bottle, popcorn, and diner sign. I also made 4 pair of these dice to hang!


My apprentice helped me today as well. I think her finished product has a Jackson Pollack type vibe to it- pure genius!!!

Birthday Bash- Day 93

So this week is my sweet little baby's 3rd birthday (sorry- she'll always be my baby!). David says I've gone a little overboard on the homemade party decorations, but I love any excuse to be crafty! This week I'll be showcasing some things I've made for her 50s themed party this weekend!

Cupcake Toppers made with my new Cricut- very time consuming, but adorable (I think)!


Birthday Banner- also made with the Cricut
